A great guide

An outstanding companion guide to an illustrious collection of Western European paintings. Ideal for anyone -- visitor or non-visitor of the National Gallery -- who appreciates art in general. The breadth of the author's knowledge on the collection is simply amazing.

A must-have for any art lover.

This book is what visitors to the National Gallery (London) buy when they're there. However, it can be read at home too, since it reprints over 200 paintings in the Gallery in full color, and provides detailed descriptions of each. A great way to introduce children to art as well as good reading for -- just about anyone really.
